MethodsFifteen young and 15 elderly volunteers aged 19 to 84 years participated in a kinetic study of intravenous lorazepam described previously (Greenblatt et al 1979). Volume of distribution, elimination half-life, and clearance of total (free plus bound) were determined based on lorazepam plasma concentrations determined by gas chromatography (Greenblatt et a1 1978) at multiple points in time for up to 72 h after the dose (see Table 1). The free fraction (percent unbound) of lorazepam was determined by a modified equilibrium dialysis technique (Woo & Greenblatt 1979) using a single sample drawn during the study in the nonfasting state. Duplicate 1 ml plasma samples were spiked to contain 2 nCi ml-1 of [14C] lorazepam (spec. act. 101 pCi= 3.3 mg) and placed in dialysis membranes suspended in 7 ml of an isotonic phosphate buffer, pH 7.4. The tubes were capped and shaken horizontally at 37" C for 18 h. A control derived from a pooled sample was included in each run. Aliquots of both plasma and buffer were mixed with 15 ml of Aquasol (New England Nuclear) and the radioactivity was determined in a Beckman liquid scintillation counter. The free fraction of lorazepam was calculated as the ratio of counts min-I in the buffer phase to that in the plasma remaining in the interior of the dialysis bag. The mean coefficient of variation between duplicate samples was less than 3.5%. The mean coefficient of variation between runs of the control sample was 2.7%.
